[Exit, with Page.]



              EVANS
          I pray you now, remembrance to-morrow on the lousy knave mine host.



              CAIUS
          Dat is good, by gar; with all my heart! [220]



              EVANS
          A lousy knave, to have his gibes and his mockeries!
                                                                                                        Exeunt.



                                                    Scene IV          IT



                                             Enter Fenton and Anne Page.



              FENTON
               I see I cannot get thy father’s love;
               Therefore no more turn me to him, sweet Nan.



              ANNE
               Alas, how then?



              FENTON
                               Why, thou must be thyself.

               He doth object I am too great of birth,
               And that my state being gall’d with my expense, [5]
               I seek to heal it only by his wealth;

               Besides these, other bars he lays before me −
               My riots past, my wild societies −
               And tells me ’tis a thing impossible
               I should love thee but as a property. [10]



              ANNE
               Maybe he tells you true.
